- More about Clinical Reasoning: Knowledge, Uncertainty, and Values in Health Care
This book provides a philosophical and clinically-oriented perspective on current medical reasoning, promoting an abductive methodology to deal with clinical uncertainties and bridging the gap between biomedical knowledge, clinical practice, and research. It discusses themes at the border of medicine, nursing, logic, epistemology, philosophy of science, ethics, epidemiology, and statistics, and compares professional approaches to clinical practice. It also highlights the neglected role of nursing knowledge and practice in shaping interdisciplinary clinical reasoning and proposes an integrative approach to health and disease beyond the classical biomedical model of care.

This comprehensive book delves into the realm of contemporary medical reasoning, offering a philosophically-informed yet clinically-oriented perspective. Its primary objectives include:
1. Identifying significant sources of uncertainty that permeate current clinical reasoning and practice.
2. Encouraging the adoption of an abductive methodology within the health context to address these clinical uncertainties effectively.
3. Bridging the gap between biomedical knowledge, clinical practice, and research, while also exploring the values inherent in both clinical and philosophical literature.
With a strong philosophical foundation, the book explores themes that transcend the boundaries of medicine, nursing, logic, epistemology, and the philosophy of science. It also critically examines ethical considerations, epidemiology, and statistics, highlighting the need for a unified framework of reasoning that draws from diverse clinical and non-clinical disciplines.
In particular, this book emphasizes the untapped potential of nursing knowledge and practice in shaping the interdisciplinary nature of clinical reasoning. It sheds light on how nursing expertise can be integrated into the broader framework of clinical decision-making, contributing to improved patient outcomes.
Furthermore, a thorough philosophical investigation is conducted on the values involved in healthcare, drawing upon both clinical and philosophical literature. The book concludes by proposing an integrative approach to health and disease that goes beyond the traditional "classical biomedical model of care."
This book is a valuable resource for healthcare professionals, researchers, and students seeking to enhance their understanding of medical reasoning, address clinical uncertainties, and promote patient-centered care that aligns with philosophical principles.
